1. Before you think about booking your holiday, do some research on your resort and get other brochures. See what they have to say, check out TV stations to see if they have any information on anything that could affect your holiday.

2. Once you have booked your holiday, make sure that you get your documentation. Carefully check them over for any errors, and if you do encounter any problems make sure you speak to your travel provider sooner rather than later.

3. Take some time to learn some key phrases of the language where you are going, write them down on a card or add them to your phone and make sure you carry them with you at all times. This can really help you out when you go to a restaurant or in an emergency.

4. Bring the contact details for the local British Consul’s office or the British Embassy – better still, register with the Foreign & Commonwealth Office 'locate' service before you go!

5. Check health requirements before you travel. Make sure that you have time to receive inoculations - take some time to prepare a medical kit to take with you for any medical emergencies, and make sure that if you need regular medication you take enough supplies. If you do become ill on your holiday, seek medical attention straight away, and don't be afraid to call your GP for further assistance. Always get yourself Travel Insurance as well and get yourself a EHIC card! Contact us now for further assistant http://www.holidaytravelwatch.net/
6. Prior to when you need to travel (we recommend several days), check your travel documents to make sure that you understand where you need to be and what time you need to be there. Also check that you comply with all baggage requirements of the airline.

7. Pack all of your liquids in your main luggage and do not place them in the hand baggage. Doing this will help you get through airport security much quicker.

8. When you arrive at your resort, be sure you understand the security of the complex – locate all of the fire exits, carbon monoxide alarms, safety deposit boxes, fire alarms and emergency telephone numbers where you can get assistance from. And maintain vigilance at all times, just as you would in the UK.

10. If you have any complaints, stay calm and in control. Make sure you complain immediately to the tour operators representative in the resort. You must allow them the chance to put things right – Get a customer complaints form.

11. If others have have been affected, get the names and telephone numbers of the other unhappy holidaymakers. Take photographic or video evidence of the complaint. Do not break the law though, don't go into areas without permission. Use a camera phone.
